Heavily corroded for sure but what technical grade?

Are there many 1810 varieties?

    Sharpness grade is Fine, but it's net graded to Good-4 or so because of heavy corrosion. There are five varieties of 1810 large cents.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    Is there enough detail to determine which variety this one is?

    VG-10 details.

    A little better date, and I have seen much worse among the classic heads. I concur with Bill that the technical detail is Fine.
    Though there are varieties among the classic head cents, I'm not aware of any that are scarce - like R4 and up, so there's not much to
    cherrypick in the series, at least that I'm aware of. The 1811/0 in the early die state is my favorite. What is scarce, as has been discussed in much detail already, are genuinely nice original classic heads.

    The other Classic Head thread convinced me that one of these days I'll be motivated to get a better example.

    There are bigger fish to fry at the moment now, though. image

    I like it! Interesting that the corrosion occurred first, and then the wear.

    S-282 perhaps?

    No rare varieties for any Classic Head cents
